IMPORTANT WARNINGS

AND PRECAUTIONS

  NEVER

 allow water or moisture to make 

contact with the electronic components inside the 
transmitter, receiver, servos, switch harness, etc.! 

This could lead to failure or improper functionality 

of components and poor control of aircraft which could 
pose a safety hazard.

  NEVER

 operate R/C model aircraft near power lines, radio 

or cell phone towers, roads or automobiles, buildings, or 
pedestrians. Be very careful in locations where many R/C 
aircraft are being used simultaneously.

  NEVER

 operate R/C equipment if you are physically 

impaired as it could pose a safety hazard to yourself or 
others in the area.

  NEVER

 allow small children to operate/control model R/C 

equipment without the supervision of an adult.

  NEVER

 allow the transmitter’s throttle stick to accidentally 

be moved away from the “off” or minimum position while 
the model’s engine/motor is moving.

  ALWAYS

 range check the radio system before use.

  ALWAYS

 make sure that all transmitter stick movements 

operate all servos properly in the model. Check the proper 
operation of control surfaces before and after starting the 
engine/motor.

  ALWAYS

 make sure the transmitter antenna is unfolded 

entirely so that it’s pointing upright to ensure max. range 
and control of the aircraft.

  

Do not store your radio equipment in extremely hot or 

cold locations, in direct sunlight, or in locations with high 
humidity. Store R/C equipment in cool and dry locations.

  

Do not allow chemicals to come in contact with any parts of 

the radio system. Substances such as glow fuel, gasoline, 
CA glue, etc. could permanently damage plastic parts of 
the radio system.

  

If NiCd batteries were installed in the transmitter, remove 

the batteries before placing the radio in long-term storage.

TROUBLESHOOTING

RANGE IS SHORT

Interference – check Rx installation and servo connections. 
Low Tx or Rx battery – replace the batteries or recharge if 
applicable. Rx may need to be located to a different position 
in the model for better reception. Crash damage – send the 
radio to Hobby Services for repair. 

RUN TIME IS SHORT

Low Tx or Rx batteries – replace or recharge the batteries. 
Obstructed servo linkages causing excess battery drain – 
free the linkages / pushrods.

Tx POWER SWITCH ON BUT SERVOS DO NOT FUNCTION

Tx or Rx batteries are low – replace or recharge the batteries. 

Rx switch is in the off position – turn on the ESC or switch 
harness. Switch harness or ESC is connected incorrectly – 
check all connections and the ESC instruction manual. Rx 

is not binded to the Tx properly – perform binding process 
again. Check Tx or Rx battery polarity.

INTERFERENCE OR SERVOS GLITCHING

Out of range – operate the model more closely to the transmitter. 
Outside radio interference from pagers, strong industrial or 
other commercial transmitters in the area - check your local 
R/C club regarding local operation. Rx located too closely to 
engine, motor, or servos or other moving mechanical parts 
which might be creating unwanted electrical noise – relocate 
the Rx inside the model or relocate the ESC.

CONTROL SURFACE MOVES IN THE WRONG DIRECTION

Reverse the position of the reversing switch for the 
appropriate channel.

ONLY ONE SERVO GLITCHES

Servo is bad – replace the servo or send to Hobby Services 
for repair.
